The Alternate Reality of Ancient Rome Standing at the Crossroads of History Can Be Yours...Will You Accept Your Calling?
The Gracchi, Champions of the Plebs, lie dead. Marius, Sulla, the great names of known history shall never come to prominence here. Will you take their role in history? Set in ancient Rome during the period of the Late Republic, this interactive role-playing game puts YOU right into the thick of the action! Will you choose to be a Patrician from an ancient and noble family, determined to fight for the traditions which go back to the very founding of Rome? Will you take on the role of a New Man, determined to carve out a place for yourself in the Senate? What about a Knight-businessman? (Those Senators hate the idea of dirtying their hands with trade and commerce, but money is the key to power!) Will you pursue your career in the courts, the Senate, the Forum...or on the field of battle?
In other words...will you become The First Man in Rome? It's all up to you!
